Capture
There are three lists in the Purifiers department.
Ordinary, dangerous, and extremely dangerous.
Of the three lists, the ordinary list usually includes cultivators below the Martial King level, while the dangerous list mainly includes Martial Kings, a small number of Nascent Primordial Spirit True Lord, as well as peak Martial Kings and high-level Celestial Person Beings.
As for the extremely dangerous list...
Not only are there top-tier Celestial Person and peak Celestial Person, but there are even martial saints and saints.
And the Thunder Realm...
It was none other than the ninth-ranked being on the list of extremely dangerous beings, a peak Celestial Person.
Each of these people is extremely vicious. Once they show themselves, not only ordinary purgers, but even the city's guardians, such as the city lord, the master of the Demon Slayer Hall, the master of the Martial Saint Academy, and the commander of the city guard, will be alarmed.
Because only those who stand at the very top of the city have enough power to suppress these extremely dangerous terrorists.
Lei Jie has now appeared, and with one strike he has intimidated the four powerful figures, Hei Jian, Lan Bailin, Dong Yuji, and Lan Yuxian. Moreover, he has made a grabbing motion from a distance, intending to take the Crimson Dragon away directly.
This scene made Lan Yuxian's eyes widen in surprise.
Damn it!
She has been investigating Liu Zhenyuan's clues for three days now. If she could catch him in three days, she would have caught him long ago. Why would she wait until now?
Chi Long, Shang Tielong, is her only hope of winning a spot to study in the cave.
If Lei Jie rescues the Crimson Dragon again...
Her chances of winning a spot will become extremely slim.
"I'm not reconciled!"
Lan Yuxian's true essence surged, and the Xuanhuang Zhenyue Tower radiated light, with ripples spreading out again as it suppressed the Crimson Dragon.
"Miss, you mustn't..."
Lan Bailin exclaimed in surprise.
Lei Jie, this is a peak Celestial Person Realm expert ranked ninth on the list of extremely dangerous individuals. If he is angered...
But his call came too late.
"How can an ordinary Celestial Person being wield a Dao artifact? How unfair!"
As a divine thought swept through, a figure appeared in an ordinary courtyard several miles away.
Thunder Realm.
Upon appearing, he raised his hand, and a bolt of lightning pierced through the void, crashing towards Lan Yuxian with a deafening roar.
Although Lan Yuxian immediately summoned the Endless Flower, a quasi-Dao artifact used for protection, to block the penetrating force and high temperature of the lightning, the energy released after the lightning shattered still impacted her nerves, causing her body to stiffen, her internal True Qi to circulate extremely slowly, and her consciousness to almost lose control of her body.
After the attack, Lei Jie captured the opponent from afar. Under the shock of the power of heaven and earth, his Primordial Spirit seemed to manifest, crossing the void and landing on the Xuanhuang Zhenyue Tower, a Dao artifact offered by Lan Yuxian, with a powerful force of attraction.
"I want this Dao artifact!"
He spoke calmly, as if describing the simplest of events.
"Thunder Realm, how dare you show your face in Wind and Rain City!"
At this moment, Black Sword also recovered from the stiffness caused by the lightning chains and let out a loud shout.
"I am in the outer city, nearly a hundred miles away from the nearest Martial Saint. Even if a Saint or Martial Saint can cross five or six miles in a single breath, it would still take more than ten breaths to reach the scene. In that time, I would have already fled with this trophy."
As Lei Jie spoke, his Primordial Spirit body blazed with lightning, and countless bolts of lightning poured into Lan Yuxian's body, causing her to tremble uncontrollably and her control over the Xuanhuang Zhenyue Tower to plummet to its limit.
"No!"
Lan Yuxian screamed in terror.
Even if the Crimson Dragon is rescued, she might at most lose the qualification to go to the grotto-heaven for further cultivation, but once she discards this Dao artifact...
She only has the right to use this artifact, not the right to control it. For a long time to come, she can forget about getting any support from her Lineage. She will even have to do her best to make up for the loss of the artifact.
She shook her divine senses, trying her best to regain control of the Xuanhuang Zhenyue Pagoda.
On the other side, Lan Bailin reacted at this moment, and his gaze immediately fell on Gu Jinlai: "Ancient Martial King, if you don't act now, when will you?! As long as you can hold off Lei Jie for a moment, when the Saint and Martial Saint in the city arrive, you will have great merit and be promoted to captain in no time."
Lan Yuxian was reminded by Lan Bailin and suddenly realized what was going on.
Gu Jinlai!
Lei Yuanzong's battle prowess was comparable to that of a peak Celestial Person, a feat unmatched Gu Jinlai!
Although he might not be able to defeat Lei Jie, who is ranked ninth on the list of extremely dangerous enemies, this is Fengyu City. As long as he can hold off Lei Jie for a dozen breaths, the Martial Saints and Saints in the Inner City will arrive.
With Lei Jie's bounty of 2.2 billion, even if these assistants only get one-third of it, that would still be more than 700 million.
With these 700 million contribution points, plus her efforts over the past month, she will completely surpass Lan Yuhua and win the spot for advanced study in the cave.
Upon realizing this, she immediately activated her divine sense and urgently sent a message: "Ancient Martial King, please make a move quickly. As long as you can hold off Lei Jie for twenty breaths, all the contributions he made after being killed will be yours, and I will not need a penny."
Gu Jinlai at Lan Yuxian, but frowned.
The reason he didn't act immediately was because he discovered that the Karma on Lei Jie's body was actually...
It's just a light red.
Although it's not low, don't forget, he's a peak Celestial Person.
A peak Celestial Person, yet the Karma on his body did not reach the point where Karma was like blood?
Moreover, judging from his actions and behavior, directly seizing the Dao artifact from Lan Yuxian's hands, he can hardly be considered a virtuous gentleman.
With such cultivation and such a style of conduct, the Karma on his body hadn't even reached the level of being as Bright Red as blood...
"Boom!"
At this moment, a powerful aura seemed to surge straight into the sky from the horizon, piercing through heaven and earth, and rushing toward this direction at an extremely fast speed.
"It's the Martial Saint of the Zongyan Sect!"
"The Martial Saint has arrived!? Judging from his aura... he's only thirty or forty miles away!? He's right near the outer city?"
"Great! We're saved!"
Sensing this aura, the Martial Kings in the Purifier squad all showed joy on their faces.
There just so happens to be a martial arts master nearby.
Thirty or forty li is hardly a distance for a martial saint.
He will arrive at the battlefield in less than ten breaths.
This scene has caused Gu Jinlai to change their expressions slightly.
Although he didn't want to pay attention to Lan Yuxian.
As one of the purgers, it is his duty to capture cultists and out-of-control individuals.
If he remains indifferent now that everyone else knows he possesses combat power comparable to a peak Celestial Person, and if he is held accountable afterward...
His situation will be very passive.
Especially with Fang Yan, the Martial Saint, watching with predatory eyes.
However, considering what Lan Yuxian had done a month ago, he didn't intend to give her such a great achievement so easily.
He immediately said, "I can do my best to hold off Lei Jie, but simply giving me contribution points is not enough! I want the Dao artifact Xuanhuang Zhenyue Tower that you possess!"
"Okay, I promise you!"
Lan Yuxian agreed almost without hesitation.
Or rather, she was already prepared to agree to any request, whether from Gu Jinlai.
This kind of exhilaration has made people, Gu Jinlai, feel somewhat uneasy.
At this moment, sensing the surging arrival of the Martial Saint Zongyan, Lei Jie no longer had the mind to forcibly seize the Xuanhuang Zhenyue Tower. He and Chilong immediately wanted to leave the battlefield.
The situation changes rapidly, leaving little room for interpretation Gu Jinlai.
With a thunderous roar, he directly condensed a lightning sword and shot it towards Lei Jie, who was retreating with the red dragon.
As he drew his sword, Lei Jie sensed something and conjured lightning chains in his hand, aiming them at the incoming lightning sword.
The two forces collided in the void, unleashing a burst of lightning.
Even though Lei Jie himself was Celestial Person, Divine Ability were even more powerful in his hands, his lightning chains were still quickly shattered when faced with the bombardment of this fully cultivated lightning sword, which had been perfected Gu Jinlai. Streaks of lightning quickly wrapped around his body, causing his figure to freeze.
At this moment, Black Sword, Dong Yuji, and others took action, unleashing their martial arts Divine Ability to bombard the lightning tribulation.
Lan Yuxian, who had regained control of the Xuanhuang Zhenyue Pagoda, reactivated the artifact. Ripples swept down, impacting Lei Jie's body and leaving him unable to break free.
"The cultists dare to act so recklessly in my Wind and Rain City!"
In less than six breaths, Martial Saint Zongyan had already broken through the air and arrived.
An immense martial will, like a mountain, pressed down on Lei Jie with overwhelming force.
With the addition of Lan Yuxian, Gu Jinlai, Hei Jian, Dong Yuji and Celestial Person, even the powerful Thunder Realm was instantly suppressed.
As Martial Saint Zongyan unleashed a power akin to that of an ancient divine beast, the protective spiritual armor and protective Gang Qi on this peak Celestial Person being collapsed. The remaining force of the violent fist continued to slam into his body, causing the ground within a radius of tens of meters around him to instantly collapse and turn into a large crater.
He was covered in blood and was blasted to the ground, his breath extremely weak.
"Hahaha, good! Lei Jie is a high-ranking member of a demonic cult. Capturing him and interrogating him will be enough to wipe out the entire organization behind him. At that time, our Wind and Rain City will be able to make a great impression throughout the Holy Dynasty!"
Zong Yan leaped and landed beside Lei Jie, grabbing him and taking him under control.
He was very measured when he threw the punch, and did not kill Lei Jie directly.
A living Thunder Realm is more valuable than a dead Thunder Realm.
"Call."
Lan Yuxian looked at Lei Jie, who had finally been captured, and the Crimson Dragon, who had been added to the list, and let out a long breath.
It's done!
With at least 700 million contribution points in hand, securing a spot for further study at the cave is no longer a challenge for her.
She straightened her clothes and stepped forward with a smile, "Congratulations, Martial Saint Zong Yan! With this achievement, you will surely be able to make even greater progress."
"Haha, Jade Fairy."
Zong Yan was in a good mood and replied with a smile, "We were able to take down the Thunder Realm thanks to the full cooperation of your team. Don't worry, you'll get a lot of credit for it."
"We naturally trust Lord Zongyan."
Lan Yuxian smiled and said, "We will assist you in taking Lei Jie to the Inner City for trial."
"Good."
Zong Yan did not refuse to give Lan Yuxian face.
The group was about to leave.
Gu Jinlai, who was standing to the side, frowned and said in a telepathic message, "Don't forget what you promised me."
But Lan Yuxian seemed not to hear, and stayed close to Zong Yan, leading Lan Bailin and the others to escort Lei Jie and Chi Long away quickly.
